Jio Studios and SVF Entertainment Unveil Trailer for "Athhoi," A Modern Interpretation of Shakespearean Drama- Othello The film is slated to grace the silver screen on June 14th! “Truths are illusions of which we have forgotten that they are illusions” --- Nietzsche Kolkata, June 06th, 2024 – Jio Studios and SVF Entertainment have released the highly anticipated Trailer for "Athhoi," just one week ahead of the film's premiere. The trailer offers an enigmatic glimpse into the human heart and society, promising a captivating cinematic experience. "Athhoi" captures the essence of Shakespeare's exploration of human emotions, portraying love, deception, and rivalry in a contemporary setting. It begins with a powerful depiction of the human existential crisis, examining the dichotomy of good and bad, and how society provokes these internal conflicts. The trailer sparks conversations about love, jealousy, and ambition in today's world, delivering a profound message on the concept of truth and challenging our conventional understanding. The film features a stellar cast including Arna Mukhopadhyay, Anirban Bhattacharya, Sohini Sarkar, Ditipriya Roy, Mimi Dutta, Arpan Ghoshal, Kaushik Banerjee, and other important cast – crew members. Arna Mukhopadhyay, the Director and the Actor breathing life into Dr. Athhoi Lodha (Othello), shared his thoughts, "'Athhoi' is a labour of love that has taken years to bring to fruition. With this trailer, our aim is to delve deep into the complexities of human emotions and present a modern interpretation of Shakespeare's timeless tale. Through this film, we hope to evoke profound emotions and reflections." Anirban Bhattacharya, who plays Gogo (echoing Iago from Shakespeare's original work) and serves as the Creative Director, expressed his sentiments, "We were clear from the beginning on how to create this Shakespearean world. Every shot division was meticulously planned, and our team worked tirelessly from pre-production to post-production. As the release date approaches, there is a mix of excitement and nervousness. We hope for the best." Sohini Sarkar, who brings to life the spirited and intelligent character of Diya, reminiscent of Desdemona, remarked, "Playing Diya was a transformative experience. This role allowed me to explore the depths of human resilience and vulnerability. 'Athhoi' invites audiences to question and feel, making it a truly immersive journey." Set for release on June 14th, "Athhoi" is poised to be a cinematic milestone, eagerly awaited by audiences worldwide. Through its innovative interpretation, the film promises to offer a thought-provoking exploration of jealousy, ambition, and love today.

    Team Gumnaami unveils statue of Netaji with the public screening of song ‘Dhawno Dhanyo’


    Sep 30, 2019

    Statue of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose unveiled by Team Gumnaami at North Kolkata along with first public screening of song ‘Dhawno Dhanyo’

    Kolkata, 30th September 2019 – The cast and crew of director Srijit Mukherji’s much anticipated Pujo release Gumnaami were present at a North Kolkata Youth Club on Sunday to unveil the statue of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. Along with revealing the statue of British India’s most revered freedom fighter, the team also did an inaugural public screening of the song ‘Dhawno Dhanyo’ from Gumnaami, dedicated to this great hero. Present at the event were lead actors Prosenjit Chatterjee, Anirban Bhattacharya and the Captain of the Ship, director Srijit Mukherji.

    Gumnaami is a film based on the Mukherjee Commission Hearings which happened from 1999 to 2005 where the three theories about Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose’s death were discussed and debated. It is a dramatization of the hearings where an investigative journalist supporting the ‘Gumnaami Baba theory’ locks horns with the official lawyer who supports the ‘plane-crash theory’. In their clash, the ‘Death in Russia theory’ also comes up.

    The song ‘Dhawno Dhanyo’ has been originally composed and penned by the legendary poet Dwijendralal Roy which has been rearranged by famous music director Indraadip Dasgupta in the film. A choir of singers namely Ishan Mitra, Mekhla Das Gupta, Durnibar Saha, Ikkshita Mukherjee and Winy Roy have beautifully rendered their voice to this soulful number.

    While the song narrates the glories of our motherland -India, the song video depicts the trying times one of her sons (Subhas Chandra Bose) has to go through in order to ensure freedom for her. The song takes us through the various theories on the death and disappearance of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. The poignant lyrics and visuals prompt the audience to question as to whether Netaji died in an air crash, or did he die in Russia, or he lived as an ascetic and died in India.

    Elucidating about the song and his upcoming release director Srijit Mukherji said, “It is an honour to inaugurate the figurine of an individual whom I have idolised since childhood. This couldn’t have been a better occasion to launch our 3rd song from the film, Dhawno Dhanyo, which not only glorifies our motherland, but also is a fitting tribute to one of her greatest sons – Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose”

    The Bengali version of Gumnaami produced by SVF and starring Prosenjit Chatterjee, Anirban Bhattacharya, Tnusree Chakraborty and others is scheduled to release on 2nd October 2019 Nationally, followed by Hindi version release on 11th October. The music used in the film is the original soundtrack by INA & D.L.Roy and has been rearranged by National Award Winning music director Indraadip Dasgupta.
